Planning a church weekend?
A weekend gives your group time to explore a topic and put new skills into practice. Here is one possible schedule, which we can adjust together (I don't do evenings):
• Saturday, 11am: church service presentation.
• Saturday, 1–3pm: a deeper exploration of your chosen topic after lunch.
• Sunday, 9–11am: practical application, discussion, and small-group activities.

Please include your preferred date, location or online format, audience and approximate group size, topic, and budget. It is fine if you are still working out the details.
